Chapter 1381

To be accurate, Betty needed her greatly.

Sean, on the other hand, had become independent way too early and was now in his own little world.

The thought made Diana feel slightly down.

Her children had all grown up.

She had to keep warning herself to retreat from their lives in a civil manner. That was her first lesson as
a parent.

They were children she had painstakingly raised since their birth, and she had inevitably grown deeply
attached to them.

Retreat from their lives…

To learn how to constantly retreat and draw further away was truly tough.

Diana held back the tears in her eyes as she untied Betty’s hair.

Betty’s hair had just been washed this morning, and the sweet scent of her shampoo was still lingering
in her hair.

Diana couldn’t help but rub her nose at the scent. “Does the shampoo at our house smell so good?”

“No.” Betty shook her head. “The shampoo we use at home doesn’t have a scent.”

Where did that sweet scent come from, then?

Diana could smell the strong fragrance of roses; it made her think of their vivid red color, even without
seeing any.



Since the sweet smell wasn’t coming from Betty’s hair and wasn’t the fragrance used in the room,
where exactly was the scent coming from?

She was just wondering about it when she heard a commotion at the balcony.

She ignored it.

“I’ll take you to the shower,” Diana said, holding Betty’s hand and leading the girl to the bathroom.

She had booked a room with a bathtub. She had prepared a bubble bath sachet, which she placed in
the tub and ran the water before telling Betty to go in.

Betty wasn’t used to using the shower gels from outside her house.

Diana packed Betty’s usual bathing mousse, which formed soft clouds of foam on her hand with every
pump.

She had a lot of fun playing with the foam, she pumped a few more handfuls of it before transferring it
into the tub.

“Mommy, you’re more playful than me,” Betty commented, pulling Diana. “Come in and bathe with me.”

It had been a while since they took a bath together.Books Chapters Are Daily Updated Join & Stay

Diana always thought that adults’ bodies were dirty, and that little children, especially girls, had to pay
special attention to their personal female hygiene. Thus, she rarely took baths with her daughter.

In fact, she could count the times she bathed with Betty since the latter’s birth with just one hand.

Instinctively, she wanted to say no to Betty. However, Betty’s eyes were filled with expectations and
desire.



Forget it. She was probably quite clean, anyway.

She pondered for a moment, before deciding, “Let’s not think so much.”

Her daughter wanted to be close to her, and enjoy a happy time bathing with her. There was no need
for her to dampen Betty’s enthusiasm.

“It’s said that some exposure to germs can build immunity,” Diana mumbled, trying to comfort herself.
“If I’m too uptight and Betty gets underexposed to germs, it might not be good for her health in the long
term.”

Betty cupped her chin and leaned against the edge of the tub, looking gleefully at Diana mumbling to
herself.

Betty didn’t rush Diana for an answer. She just waited for Diana to take off her clothes. Then, she
immediately grabbed Diana’s arms and pulled her slowly into the tub.

“Mommy, be careful.”

Mommy couldn’t afford to slip and fall. Daddy and Sean weren’t around, so Betty had to shoulder the
responsibility of protecting Mommy.

Absolutely no one, including herself, could hurt Mommy!

Diana saw Betty pout, looking all serious, and burst out laughing. “It’s fine. I’m just pregnant. I’m not
severely ill to the point I can’t stand.”

Betty needn’t be so anxious. Seeing such a small and petite girl with her face all flushed and anxious
was such an adorable sight!



Steam rose from the water, leaving a mist on the mirror. Diana and Betty were having fun in the tub
while the commotion at the balcony went on.
